Buckle up, baby. Another kicking competition is coming to Bourbonnais Lake Forrest.
Buried in the Trey Burton and Jason Spriggs announcements was the news that the Bears have signed another kicker:

Ahmed played his college ball at Nevada, where he went 15/20 on field goal attempts in 2018, his senior year. Distance wise, here how it broke down:
20-29 yards: 6-7
30-39 yards: 6-6
40-49 yards: 2-3
50+ yards: 1-4

Ahmed will head to camp looking to win the starting job from Eddy Pineiro, who, you'll remember, outlasted a handful of guys for the gig last summer.
